Series VI active equalizer is designed for specific use with
Bose 901 Series VI speakers. It may also be used with 901 Series V speakers.
WARNING:
Bose 901 Series I, II, III, or IV speakers require a substantially
different equalization. The 901 Series VI active equalizer must not be used
with Series I – IV speakers. For additional information on the active equalizer,
please contact Bose Service.
Connecting additional speakers
The type of speakers and how you will use them determines how many
amplifiers and 901 active equalizers you will need.
To run other non-901 speakers simultaneously requires the addition of a
second amplifier. To use other speakers simultaneously with the 901 speakers
requires the ability to isolate the 901 active equalizer signal so that it affects
only the 901 speakers.
Adding 901 speakers
You need just one 901 Series VI active equalizer to use a second pair of 901
Series VI speakers connected to a single receiver or amplifier. Connect the
additional speakers to the additional speaker output jacks on the receiver or
amplifier.
To use extra 901 speakers in a four channel or time-delay music system, you
will need a separate 901 active equalizer for each pair of speakers.
Adding conventional speakers
You need a separate power amplifier to play conventional speakers at the
same time as 901 speakers. Connect the 901 active equalizer to the amplifier
that drives the 901 speakers only.
CAUTION:
Make sure the conventional speakers do not receive signals
from the 901 active equalizer.
Call Bose Corporation for assistance with the connection of additional
speakers or signal processing equipment. Refer to the address information on
the inside back cover of this guide.
